title: Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm in children following subaortic muscular resection.
abstract: Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is an extremely rare cardiac complication, especially in early childhood. This potentially catastrophic complication may develop following cardiac operations for left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Surgical repair is indicated when the complication is detected. This article presents 2 cases of left ventricular pseudoaneurysm development following subaortic muscular resection.
